The 25-year-old was named in England manager Gareth Southgate’s five-man stand-by list. He was training with the team since May 21 but had to leave the training camp to undergo a hernia operation.

"Tarkowski is expected to be fit for the Clarets’ return to pre-season training in early July. England have confirmed there are no plans to call up a replacement defender at this time," the club said in a statement published on their official website.

The defender has made 33 appearances for Burnley this season and earned his only England cap in March, playing all 90 minutes in a 1-1 friendly draw with Italy.

Russia's first-ever FIFA World Cup will take place from June 14 to July 15 in 11 host cities. England were drawn in Group G where they will face Tunisia, Panama and Belgium.
